An airship is in Newberry for the first time, taking passengers at a, high rate of fare, while Hoover's re-1 lief ships for starving men, women / and children are wanting money,?? clothing, medicine, and food to relieve the terrible suffering of a large part of humanity in the world. To look; at the crowds in this favored com- . munity no one would ever suspect that people elsewhere were actually. dying: of starvation. While you are squandering money, prive some of it to the emaciated babies and their parents in less favored countries. Health Officer Matthews reported to us just before our closing hour for pi ess Monday afternoon that the number of new cases of influenza for the three days of Saturday, Sunday and Monday were only eiehte:'n; which shows that the situation is de- j ci<Ie<:ly imnnsiag. i he toiai J her of cases the city reported since the beginning of the outbreak is 134,! . many of the sick ones having recov- J e?ed and all others getting along all right, having had mild attacks with the exception of a very few. When we saw the officer Monday afternoon he had lifted the quarantine from twelve houses and had others on his list for that purpose. Dr. Robert L. Mayes is handling the influenza situation here as acting chairman of the board of health in the absence from the office of the chairman, Dr. J. K. Gilder, who is still confined to his home among those down with the prevalent disease. He and j the members of his household are het- J ter. and the many friends of his son * -?? t r t 1 -11 t. i in-law, 3ir. u. n. jonnson, win j triad to learn that he, too, is improving. "Red" Johnson, as he is peculiarly called by his intimate friends, is at the hospital in Greenville, where the influenza is also raging. His brother from Atlanta is with him 1 i and a trained nurse was sent Sunday j night to his bedside. Both Spartanburg and Greenville j bounties declared countywide quar- | jr.tine as a result of the appearance ; ?i hundreds of cases of influenza in i :hose sections. Dr. J. C. Mitchell ; 'he health officer of Anderson, in j speaking of the probability of an ' epidemic there, requiring quarantine j neasures, said that "a poor qua ran- j .ine, or rather a partial one, does j is little good as no quarantine at ' ill," and that "not a mere closing 3f moving picture houses, churches, schools, etc., would be in force, but i real iron-bound quarantine, places )f business of all kinds where people congregate, and this quarantine .vould have to be really enforced." # __ Card of Thanks.
